Former President Donald J. Trump easily won the 2024 GOP presidential nomination straw poll at the CPAC 2022 gathering this weekend in Orlando, Florida. Donald emerged as the clear winner in the Conservative Political Action Conference, highly anticipated presidential straw poll, capturing massive support in a hypothetical primary match-up and cementing his status as the heavy favorite for the 2024 Republican nomination among the most devoted conservatives. 

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis finished with second place with 28 percent support, making him the only other prospective candidate to notch double-digit support. In last year’s straw poll, DeSantis notched 21% support.  

Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo gets just 2% support, finished in third place.

Former Vice President Mike Pence only gets 1% at the CPAC poll without Trump even though he’s in 2nd in every primary poll. Trump remains the most popular & influential politician in the Republican Party as he continues to play the role of kingmaker's in GOP primaries, won 55% support a year ago in the CPAC Orlando straw poll. Donald jumped to 70 percent support in the 2024 straw poll conducted last July at CPAC in Dallas.

Even after losing the 2020 bid, Donald Trump remains one of the most popular and would likely run away with the 2024 GOP presidential nomination should he mount a comeback bid. After seeing the CPAC results Trump spokesman Taylor Budowich touted on Twitter, he said:

Any questions?

President Trump continues to grow the conservative MAGA movement, which includes growing his political dominance. What a great conference—the MAGA wave is going to crash over 2022 in a historic fashion.

Throughout the 4-day CPAC conference, attendees of this event repeatedly said that they remain supportive of Donald Trump, but also expressed a growing interest in Ron DeSantis. Around 2500 people attended this CPAC 2022 conference in Florida who had voted on the straw poll.

Trump captured 59% of ballots cast in the anonymous online straw poll, as per the results declared:


- Trump 59%
- Desantis 28%
- Pompeo 2%
- Noem 1%
- Paul 1% 
- Pence 1%
- Haley 1%
- Youngkin 1%
- Scott 1%

No one else hit 1%

President Trump explains more about his new social media site "Truth Social" | Latest Statement on TMTG

  Photo "Donald Trump" by  Dan Scavino Latest Statement on TMTG by the 45th President Donald J. Trump Last week, I announced the creation of a major new company that will challenge the dominance of the Big Tech giants and Big Media bosses. Today I want to explain more about what I am doing and why. For me, this endeavor is about much more than politics. This is about saving our country. America has always been a nation of smart, spirited, and independent people who take pride in thinking for themselves. We admire those who aren’t afraid to speak their minds, or go against the tide. Yet suddenly, we find ourselves being censored and dictated to by a small group of self-righteous scolds and self-appointed arbiters of what everyone else is allowed to think, say, share, and do. Nowhere is this censorship more dangerous and brazen than on social media, the public square of our times. We have seen renowned medical doctors being banned from platforms for contradicting “health author...

  Karoline Leavitt Karoline Leavitt Discusses The Admin’s Decision To Pick The Press Allowed To Ask Trump Questions Washington, D.C. – During Tuesday's White House Press Briefing, Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt addressed questions regarding the Trump Administration's new policy on selecting reporters who will be granted the opportunity to cover President Donald Trump in high-profile settings. The policy follows a recent court ruling by Judge McFadden, who dismissed a lawsuit filed by the Associated Press (AP) against the White House. The lawsuit had challenged the administration's decision to remove AP from certain press events, a move critics claim restricts access to key governmental proceedings. During the briefing, a reporter questioned Leavitt on whether the administration would consider dissolving the White House Correspondents' Association (WHCA), given the ruling's acknowledgment that the organization has no formal authority over press access.
